Slide Fire Teams Up with Colt Competition on CRZ-16 Rifle
Slide Fire announced the company had teamed up with Colt Competition on a new CRZ-16 variant called the CRZ-16 Bump Fire Rifle. The new version of the gun, as you might expect, is equipped with a Slide Fire SSAR-15 MOD stock that allows the shooter to “…achieve simulated full-auto fire without compromising safety or accuracy.”
The CRZ-16 Bump Fire Rifle has a 16″ 4150 CrMo steel barrel with a 1:8″ twist. It is chambered for the 5.56 NATO cartridge and uses a carbine length gas system. Up front, Colt Competition uses a low profile, fixed gas block. Surrounding the barrel is a 10″ aluminum hand guard with M-LOK attachment points. To help reduce muzzle rise and felt recoil, the company uses a two chamber muzzle brake.
The SSAR-15 MOD stock has an integral pistol grip. Colt Competition uses an oversized Magpul trigger guard and includes a single 30 round Magpul Pmag with the gun. The trigger is a colt product that is said to be target grade with a six pound pull.
These rifles have a suggested retail price of $1,199. Taking a look at the Colt Competition site, I see that this is the same price as the standard CRZ-16 with an M-4 style stock and pistol grip. While the rifle has a sub-MOA guarantee, don’t expect to make “simulated full-auto” groups of an inch or so at 100+ yards.

The slidefire stock has got to be one of the most pointless products out there. There is simply no practical application for it oyher than standing in one spot and pointing in one direction. I know, I had one. It gave me some giggles the first couple of times. Then got boring quick. Can't run n gun it. Sux when transitioning between targets. If Colt wanted to do some sort of sim "full auto" they would have been better going with a binary trigger system like the Fostech Echo. Much better simulated full auto trigger. I'm not even going near the 6lbs? "match grade" trigger.
I put a bump fire stock on my AR and it worked perfectly,it goes back to semi auto with the turn of a lever.
